This Element provides an overview of the central components of
recent work in virtue ethics. The first section explores central
themes in neo-Aristotelian virtue ethics, while the second turns
the discussion to major alternative theoretical perspectives. The
third section focuses on two challenges to virtue ethics. The first
challenge is the self-centeredness or egoism objection, which is
the notion that certain kinds of virtue ethics are inadequate
because they advocate a focus on the person's own virtue and
flourishing at the expense of, or at least without due regard for,
the concerns of others. The second is situationist challenges to
the ideas that there are indeed virtues and that personality is
integrated enough to support virtues.
